Quarter 4, At-Home Learning Week 3

Hello Families!

We are now entering our third week of remote learning! I have so enjoyed getting to talk to your students on the phone and see their faces during our Zoom meetings! I hope that you all are finding a new normal and establishing new routines as a family.

Google Classroom

By now, you all should have received the email from the office with instructions for logging into Google Classroom. I expect there to be a learning curve with this new format- both for students and myself- so we have pared down the amount of content this week. Please let me know if you are having trouble accessing the site, or if you have any questions! We will be utilizing Google Classroom for the remainder of the year. 

Zoom Meetings

I have added an "assignment" for our Zoom meetings on Monday and Thursday next week. The login information can be found in the assignment. I will also be sending out the login information via email. 

R & R Weekend

April 10-13 is a well-earned long R&R Weekend! There will be no school or Zoom meetings scheduled for April 10th or 13th, so the next two weeks are only 4 day weeks.

Great job to the following students for working hard on XtraMath this week! 

Ethan M, Zoe R, Aden M, Payton S, Payten A, Bryson F, Jonathan S, Sylvie W, Kayla B, Halle B

Lessons

Math: Students will practice word problems and dividing with decimals. Students should complete XtraMath each day. If you have not yet enrolled your child, please do so at this at time. Let me know if you need the login information re-sent to you. 

History: Students will read selected chapters and answer questions. 

Science: There will be no science this week. 

Writing: Students will answer writing prompts from the history unit with a one-paragraph essay using proper grammar and spelling. 

Grammar: There will be no grammar this week. 

Spalding: Students will copy the words once with syllable breaks, rules, and markings while watching the video. They will then copy the words two more times with syllable breaks only. Then students will practice phonograms. 

Literature: Students will read chapter 5 this week- half a chapter each day. Students will also write a 5-7 sentence chapter summary, noting important events and characters.  

Free Reading: Students will read a book of their choice, independently for at least 20 minutes.
